If you want to use BootNTR Selector, you will need a different version of Luma. See https://github.com/Nanquitas/BootNTR/releases .

Hello,
Only rcently discovered that my 3ds had cfw on it, so I don't know all ins and outs.
Wanted to remove nnid from console, but didn't know there was an option to do it without formatting system at the time. Before that I did both sysNAND and whole SD card backup. So now I'm wondering if it possible to restore previous state, so I don't have to redownloading all programs again.

You can do this but that doesn't unlink it from Nintendo server.

How do I install this? Do I just replace the '.3dsx' and '.cia' files on the main source folder?

That Twilight app to run DS games is kinda slow. I wish it was snappier.

A flash cart seems to be quicker.

Yes, I want to do that, but I already have formatted 3ds. Is there a way to return to before formatted state? As I previously said, I have both sysNAND and SD card backups (pre formatting)

You can try the NAND backup and the file backup to see if that bring you back to pre-formatted state. It should work.

No, you’ll want to click on the 3gx loader link and install that.

I did follow this and replaced the boot file, but it hasn't helped.

I see it mentions installing plugins. Is this needed to fix the issue? If so, where would I find the default .3gx file? Could I find one for a specific app like Poke Transporter?

Did you replace boot.firm, or boot.3dsx, or what?

By "it hasn't helped", does that mean you're still getting the same error message?

I replaced boot.firm. It was only that file.

Yes, it still led me to getting the same error message which is exactly what I mean.

I replaced boot.firm. It was only that file.

And did you install the latest version of BootNTR selector as well? It is much more likely someone will be able to help you if you provide details.

You're right. The selector had to be updated as well.

There is an application that can forward your DS games to the home menu, takes a little bit to set up a save file but after that it should be quicker than twilight, the app is called NDS Forwarder Generator, just search NDS on the Universal Updater, after a bit you should find the app! hope this could help!

In the end, it still uses nds-bootstrap and thus is the same thing as TWiLight.

Forwarders are also known to have some compatibility problems.

I'm running Luma3ds on my 2ds (old) with firmware 11.15.0-47E. Is it safe to perform system update to the latest firmware without risk of bricking and loosing Luma3ds?

It's safe. Just update Luma3DS to the latest version first (v.11), then perform the fw update.
